The aim of this study was to evaluate the breath hydrogen test in the diagnosis of small intestine bacterial overgrowth associated with asymptomatic environmental enteropathy in children living in an urban slum. Fifty school-age children living in a slum and 50 children who attended a private health clinic in the same town were included in the study. Breath hydrogen test was carried out after the administration of lactulose or glucose on two different days. Bacterial overgrowth was diagnosed when the hydrogen concentration increased more than 20 ppm in a sample collected for up to 60 min. Production of hydrogen was greater after the ingestion of lactulose than after the ingestion of glucose. Bacterial overgrowth was noted in 37.5% of the children living in the slum and in 2.1% of the control group (P < 0.001). The children living in the slum presented a higher proportion of bacterial overgrowth when lactulose was used in the breath hydrogen test.  相似文献

AimSpinal cord injury (SCI) patients may have intestinal dysmotility and digestive symptoms that are associated with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). The aim of this study is to describe the prevalence of SIBO in SCI patients and the risk factors of its development.MethodsTwenty-nine consecutive SCI patients were studied (10 women/19 men; mean age 47 years), 16 with subacute injuries (<9 months) and 13 with chronic injuries (>1 year). Nine patients were affected by tetraplegia and 15 by paraplegia. Each patient underwent a glucose breath test according to the North American Consensus and the presence of abdominal symptoms was evaluated during the test.The results were compared with 15 non-neurological patients with SIBO.ResultsSix patients tested positive for SIBO (21%), all of them affected by SCI in the subacute phase, 6/16 vs. 0/13 in the chronic phase (P<.05) and the majority with tetraplegia, 5/9 vs. 1/19 with paraplegia (P<.05). No statistically significant relationship was found with other clinical characteristics. All the tests were positive for methane or mixed (methane and hydrogen), while only 67% of the controls had methane-predominant production (P>.05).ConclusionSCI patients can develop SIBO, more frequently in the subacute phase and in tetraplegic patients, highlighting a high production of methane. This complication should be considered in neurogenic bowel management.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the influence of thiopurines and biological drugs on the presence of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) in patients with inactive Crohn’s disease (CD).METHODS: This was a prospective study in patients with CD in remission and without corticosteroid treatment, included consecutively from 2004 to 2010. SIBO was investigated using the hydrogen glucose breath test.RESULTS: One hundred and seven patients with CD in remission were included. Almost 58% of patients used maintenance immunosuppressant therapy and 19.6% used biological therapy. The prevalence of SIBO was 16.8%. No association was observed between SIBO and the use of thiopurine Immunosuppressant (12/62 patients), administration of biological drugs (2/21 patients), or with double treatment with an anti-tumor necrosis factor drugs plus thiopurine (1/13 patients). Half of the patients had symptoms that were suggestive of SIBO, though meteorism was the only symptom that was significantly associated with the presence of SIBO on univariate analysis (P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that the presence of meteorism and a fistulizing pattern were associated with the presence of SIBO (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: Immunosuppressants and/or biological drugs do not induce SIBO in inactive CD. Fistulizing disease pattern and meteorism are associated with SIBO.  相似文献

BACKGROUNDIn the early stage of acute pancreatitis (AP), a large number of cytokines induced by local pancreatic inflammation seriously damage the intestinal barrier function, and intestinal bacteria and endotoxins enter the blood, causing inflammatory storm, resulting in multiple organ failure, infectious complications, and other disorders, eventually leading to death. Intestinal failure occurs early in the course of AP, accelerating its development. As an alternative method to detect small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, the hydrogen breath test is safe, noninvasive, and convenient, reflecting the number of intestinal bacteria in AP indirectly. This study aimed to investigate the changes in intestinal bacteria measured using the hydrogen breath test in the early stage of AP to clarify the relationship between intestinal bacteria and acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Early clinical intervention and maintenance of intestinal barrier function would be highly beneficial in controlling the development of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).AIMTo analyze the relationship between intestinal bacteria change and ALI/ARDS in the early stage of SAP.METHODSA total of 149 patients with AP admitted to the intensive care unit of the Digestive Department, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from 2016 to 2019 were finally enrolled, following compliance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results of the hydrogen breath test within 1 wk of admission were collected, and the hydrogen production rates at admission, 72 h, and 96 h were calculated. The higher the hydrogen production rates the more bacteria in the small intestine. First, according to the improved Marshall scoring system in the 2012 Atlanta Consensus on New Standards for Classification of Acute Pancreatitis, 66 patients with a PaO2/FiO2 score ≤ 1 were included in the mild AP (MAP) group, 18 patients with a PaO2/FiO2 score ≥ 2 and duration < 48 h were included in the moderately SAP (MSAP) group, and 65 patients with a PaO2/FiO2 score ≥ 2 and duration > 48 h were included in the SAP group, to analyze the correlation between intestinal bacterial overgrowth and organ failure in AP. Second, ALI (PaO2/FiO2 = 2) and ARDS (PaO2/FiO2 > 2) were defined according to the simplified diagnostic criteria proposed by the 1994 European Union Conference. The MSAP group was divided into two groups according to the PaO2/FiO2 score: 15 patients with PaO2/FiO2 score = 2 were included in group A, and three patients with score > 2 were included in group B. Similarly, the SAP group was divided into two groups: 28 patients with score = 2 were included in group C, and 37 patients with score > 2 were included in group D, to analyze the correlation between intestinal bacterial overgrowth and ALI/ARDS in AP.RESULTSA total of 149 patients were included: 66 patients in the MAP group, of whom 53 patients were male (80.3%) and 13 patients were female (19.7%); 18 patients in the MSAP group, of whom 13 patients were male (72.2%) and 5 patients were female (27.8%); 65 patients in the SAP group, of whom 48 patients were male (73.8%) and 17 patients were female (26.2%). There was no significant difference in interleukin-6 and procalcitonin among the MAP, MSAP, and SAP groups (P = 0.445 and P = 0.399, respectively). There was no significant difference in the growth of intestinal bacteria among the MAP, MSAP, and SAP groups (P = 0.649). There was no significant difference in the growth of small intestinal bacteria between group A and group B (P = 0.353). There was a significant difference in the growth of small intestinal bacteria between group C and group D (P = 0.038).CONCLUSIONIntestinal bacterial overgrowth in the early stage of SAP is correlated with ARDS.  相似文献

BackgroundRecent evidence endorses gut microbiota dysregulation in the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF). Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) might be present in HF and associated with poor clinical outcomes. Lactulose breath testing is a simple noninvasive test that has been advocated as a reliable indicator of SIBO. In patients with HF, we aimed to evaluate the association with clinical outcomes of the exhaled hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4) concentrations through the lactulose breath test.Methods and ResultsWe included 102 patients with HF in which lactulose SIBO breath tests were assessed. Cumulative gas was quantified by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of CH4 (AUC-CH4) and H2 (AUC-H2). Clinical end points included the composite of all-cause death with either all-cause or HF hospitalizations, recurrent all-cause hospitalizations, and recurrent HF hospitalizations. Medians (interquartile ranges) of AUC-H2 and AUC-CH4 were 1290 U (520-2430) and 985 U (450-2120), respectively. In multivariable analysis, AUC-H2 (per 1000 U) was associated with all-cause death/all-cause hospitalization (hazard ratio [HR] 1.21, 95% CI 1.04–1.40; P = .012), all-cause death/HF hospitalization (HR 1.20, 95% CI 1.03–1.40; P = .021), and an increase in the rate of recurrent all-cause (incidence rate ratio [IRR] 1.31, 95% CI 1.14–1.51; P < .001) and HF (IRR 1.41, 95% CI 1.15–1.72; P = .001) hospitalizations. AUC-CH4 was not associated with any of these end points.ConclusionsAUC-H2, a safe and noninvasive method for SIBO estimation, is associated with higher risk of long-term adverse clinical events in patients with HF. In contrast, AUC-CH4 did not show any prognostic value.  相似文献

Background /Aim:

The symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome resemble those of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of SIBO and lactose intolerance (LI) occurrence in patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) according to Rome III criteria.

Patients and Methods:

In this retrospective case-control study, patients over 18 years of age with altered bowel habit, bloating, and patients who had lactose Hydrogen breath test (H2BT) done were included. The “cases” were defined as patients who fulfill Rome III criteria for IBS-D, while “controls” were those having chronic nonspecific diarrhea (CNSD) who did not fulfill Rome III criteria for IBS-D. Demographic data, predominant bowel habit pattern, concurrent use of medications, etc., were noted.

Results:

Patients with IBS-D were 119 (51%) with a mean age of 35 ± 13 years, while those with CNSD were 115 (49%) with mean age 36 ± 15 years. Patients in both IBS-D and CNSD were comparable in gender, with male 87 (74%) and female 77 (64%). SIBO was documented by lactose H2BT in 32/234 (14%) cases. It was positive in 22/119 (19%) cases with IBS-D, while 10/115 (9%) cases had CNSD (P = 0.03). LI was positive in 43/234 (18%) cases. Of these, 25/119 (21%) cases had IBS-D and 18/115 (16%) cases had CNSD (P = 0.29).

Conclusion:

SIBO was seen in a significant number of our patients with IBS-D. There was no significant age or gender difference in patients with or without SIBO.  相似文献

Background: Small-intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) has been considered a predisposing factor of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in cirrhotic patients by bacterial translocation or hematogenous spread during spontaneous bacteremia. We investigated 45 cirrhotic patients and 28 healthy subjects to assess the prevalence of SIBO and its relationship with the severity of liver dysfunction and the presence of ascites. Methods: Bacterial overgrowth was measured by the glucose hydrogen and methane breath test. Results: SIBO was documented in 16 (35.6%) of the 45 cirrhotic patients and in 1 (3.6%) of the 28 healthy controls. The prevalence of SIBO was significantly higher in patients with Child-Pugh class B or C (50%) than in those with class A (19%) and had no relationship with the presence or absence of ascites. Conclusions: We conclude that the prevalence of SIBO in cirrhotic patients is approximately 35.6% and that it is related to the severity of liver disease. There was no difference among various causes of cirrhosis, such as viral, alcoholic, or idiopathic.  相似文献

Background

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) consists of Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD). These two conditions share many common features—diarrhea, bloody stools, weight loss, abdominal pain, fever and fatigue. Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is frequent in patients with CD but it has not been studied in UC Indian patients.

Aim

The study was planned to measure orocecal transit time (OCTT) and SIBO in UC and CD patients.

Methods

One hundred thirty-seven patients of IBD (95 UC and 42 CD) and 115 healthy controls were enrolled. OCTT and SIBO were measured by lactulose and glucose hydrogen breath test respectively. Concentration of hydrogen and methane were measured by SC microlyser from Quintron, USA.

Results

Mean ± standard deviation (SD) of OCTT in patients of IBD was significantly higher as compared to controls. Furthermore, OCTT was significantly higher in CD patients as compared to UC patients. It was also observed that occurrence of SIBO was significantly higher in IBD patients as compared to controls. The occurrence of SIBO in CD (45.2 %) was significantly higher as compared to patients in UC (17.8 %) group. Percentage of methane positive IBD patients (2.9 %) was significantly lower as compared to methane positive controls (24.4 %).

Conclusion

OCTT was significantly delayed in IBD patients as compared to controls and in CD patients as compared to UC patients. OCTT was significantly higher in SIBO positive IBD patients as compared to SIBO negative patients. Thus, we can suggest that delayed OCTT would have been the cause of increased SIBO in these patients.  相似文献

We sought to determine whether a low fermentable substrate diet (LFSD) decreases abdominal pain frequency in children with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and to identify potential microbial factors related to diet efficacy. Pain symptoms, stooling characteristics, breath hydrogen and methane, whole intestinal transit time, stool microbiome, and metabolite composition were collected and/or documented in eight children with IBS at baseline and during one week of an LFSD intervention. Pain frequency (P < 0.05), pain severity (P < 0.05), and pain-related interference with activities (P < 0.05) decreased in the subjects while on the LFSD. Responders vs. non-responders: four children (50%) were identified as responders (>50% decrease in abdominal pain frequency while on the LFSD). There were no differences between responders and non-responders with respect to hydrogen production, methane production, stooling characteristics, or gut transit time. Responders were characterized by increased pre-LFSD abundance of bacterial taxa belonging to the genera Sporobacter (P < 0.05) and Subdoligranulum (P < 0.02) and decreased abundance of taxa belonging to Bacteroides (P < 0.05) relative to non-responders. In parallel, stool metabolites differed between responders and non-responders and were associated with differences in microbiome composition. These pilot study results suggest that an LFSD may be effective in decreasing GI symptoms in children with IBS. Microbial factors such as gut microbiome composition and stool metabolites while on the diet may relate to LFSD efficacy.  相似文献

BACKGROUNDGut dysbiosis and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) are commonly observed in patients with cirrhosis. Despite the substantial number of articles describing the relations between disorders of gut microbiota and various manifestations of cirrhosis, dysbiosis and SIBO were always studied separately.AIMTo study the relationship of gut dysbiosis and SIBO in cirrhosis.METHODSThis observational study included 47 in-patients with cirrhosis. Stool microbiome was assessed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. SIBO was assessed using the lactulose hydrogen breath test.RESULTSSIBO was found in 24/47 (51.1%) patients. Patients with SIBO had a higher abundance of Firmicutes (P = 0.017) and Fusobacteria (P = 0.011), and a lower abundance of Bacteroidetes (P = 0.013) than patients without SIBO. This increase in the abundance of Firmicutes occurred mainly due to an increase in the abundance of bacteria from the genus Blautia (P = 0.020) of the Lachnospiraceae family (P = 0.047), while the abundance of other major families of this phylum [Ruminococcaceae (P = 0.856), Peptostreptococcaceae (P = 0.066), Clostridiaceae (P = 0.463), Eubacteriaceae (P = 0.463), Lactobacillaceae (P = 0.413), and Veillonellaceae (P = 0.632)] did not differ significantly between the patients with and without SIBO. Reduced level of Bacteroidetes in samples from patients with SIBO was a result of the decrease in bacterial numbers from all the major families of this phylum [Bacteroidaceae (P = 0.014), Porphyromonadaceae (P = 0.002), and Rikenellaceae (P = 0.047)], with the exception of Prevotellaceae (P = 0.941). There were no significant differences in the abundance of taxa that were the main biomarkers of cirrhosis-associated gut dysbiosis [Proteobacteria (P = 0.790), Bacilli (P = 0.573), Enterobacteriaceae (P = 0.632), Streptococcaceae (P = 0.170), Staphylococcaceae (P = 0.450), and Enterococcaceae (P = 0.873)] between patients with and without SIBO.CONCLUSIONDespite the differences observed in the gut microbiome between patients with and without SIBO, gut dysbiosis and SIBO are most likely independent disorders of gut microbiota in cirrhosis.  相似文献

PurposeThe treatment of small intestinal overgrowth (SIBO) varies according to the center. The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of COLIGENTA, an association of colimycin and gentamycin, on SIBO symptomatology and breath test normalizationPatients and MethodsIn this prospective cross-sectional open study, 150 patients with functional bowel disorders and SIBO diagnosed by lactulose hydrogen breath test (LHBT) underwent COLIGENTA oral treatment. A new HLBT was performed 4 weeks after the first HLBT.ResultsThe patients were mainly female (74%), with a mean age of 47.4 ± 16.2 years and a body mass index of 26.2 ± 5.9 kg/m². After treatment, a decrease of expired hydrogen concentration (P<0.001) was found in the entire population. Improvement of gastrointestinal symptoms was found in 129 patients (86%), while the breath test's normalization was found in 62 patients (42%). Logistic regression showed that normalization of bowel symptoms was not associated with demographics, clinical, or hydrogen breath concentration. In contrast, normalization of LHBT was associated with an increase of breath hydrogen concentration at time 100 min during the first test (P = 0.003; OR=1.072; 95%CI= [1.023–1.123]).ConclusionThe present study shows that 10-days of COLIGENTA treatment has a high SIBO clinical improvement rate and can be used as the first or second treatment line.  相似文献

Objective

To determine symptoms of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) in gastroparesis patients.

Methods

Patients undergoing LBT (lactulose breath test) for evaluation of SIBO were included. LBT was considered positive on the basis of three conventional criteria: (1) hydrogen level increase >20 ppm above baseline by 90 min (H2@90min); (2) dual hydrogen peaks (>10 ppm increase over baseline before second peak >20 ppm (DPHBT); and (3) breath methane increase of >20 ppm above baseline by 90 min. Results of gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES) were recorded. Patients completed the Patient Assessment of Upper Gastrointestinal Disorders-Symptom Severity Index.

Results

Of 740 patients who underwent LBT from December 2009 to August 2011, 471 underwent GES, with 201 having delayed GES. Of patients with delayed GES who underwent LBT 87 % were female, 23 % diabetic, 49 % used gastric acid suppressants, 29 % used opiate analgesics, 35 % used pro-motility medications, and 27 % had a history of gastrointestinal surgery. Overall, 79 (39 %) patients with gastroparesis had evidence of SIBO by LBT: 30 (15 %) had positive H2@90min, 53 (26 %) positive DPHBT, and 6 (3 %) positive breath methane test. In gastroparesis patients with positive H2@90min, there was increased severity of bloating (3.80 ± 0.20 vs 3.29 ± 0.12; P = 0.02), early satiety (3.57 ± 0.27 vs 3.05 ± 0.13; P = 0.045), and postprandial fullness (4.20 ± 0.18 vs 3.52 ± 0.12; P < 0.01) compared with negative H2@90min patients. No significant difference in symptom severity was seen between positive and negative DPHBT gastroparesis patients.

Conclusion

In our cohort, 39 % of gastroparesis patients tested positive for SIBO by LBT. Positive H2@90min testing by LBT was associated with increased symptoms of bloating and excessive fullness during and after meals.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of glycyrrhizic acid (GA) on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced hepatocyte apo-ptosis in rats via a p53-dependent mitochondrial path-way. METHODS: Forty-five male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly and equally divided into three groups, the control group, the CCl4 group, and the GA treatment group. To induce liver fibrosis in this model, rats were given a subcutaneous injection of a 40% solution of CCl4 in olive oil at a dose of 0.3 mL/100 g body weight biweekly for 8 wk, while controls received the same isovolumetric dose of olive oil by hypodermic injection, with an initial double-dose injection. In the GA group,rats were also treated with a 40% solution of CCl4 plus 0.2% GA solution in double distilled water by the intraperitoneal injection of 3 mL per rat three times a week from the first week following previously published methods, with modifications. Controls were given the same isovolumetric dose of double distilled water. Liver function parameters, such as alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were de-termined. Pathologic changes in the liver were detected by hematoxylin and eosin staining. Collagen fibers were evaluated by Sirius red staining. Hepatocyte apoptosis was investigated using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine 5-triphosphate nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay and the cleaved caspase-3 immunohistochemistry assay. The expression levels of p53 and apoptosis-related proteins were evaluated by immunohistochemistry or Western blotting analysis. RESULTS: After 8 wk of treatment, GA significantly re-duced serum activity of ALT (from 526.7 ± 57.2 to 342 ± 44.8, P<0.05) and AST (from 640 ± 33.7 to 462.8 ± 30.6, P<0.05), attenuated the changes in liver his-topathology and reduced the staging score (from 3.53 ± 0.74 to 3.00 ± 0.76, P<0.05) in CCl4 -treated rats. GA markedly reduced the positive area of Sirius red and the ratio of the hepatic fibrotic region (from 7.87% ± 0.66% to 3.68% ± 0.32%, P<0.  相似文献

Background

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is associated with poor prognosis in cirrhosis. Gut-derived nitrogenous substances play a role in pathogenesis of HE. The present study was conducted to assess small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and prolonged orocecal transit time (OCTT) in cirrhosis and low-grade HE.

Methods

In cross-sectional prospective study, 75 patients were divided into 3 groups: group 1 (no HE, n = 31), group 2 (minimal HE, n = 29), and group 3 (early/grade 1 HE, n = 15). Minimal HE (MHE) was diagnosed when psychometric hepatic encephalopathy score (PHES) was ≤5. Early HE was diagnosed, according to West Haven criteria. All patients underwent glucose hydrogen breath test (GHBT) for SIBO and lactulose hydrogen breath test (LHBT) for OCTT.

Results

A total of 29 patients (38.67 %) had MHE and 15 (20 %) had early HE. Prevalence of MHE in Child–Turcotte–Pugh (CTP) class A, B, and C was 33.3, 38.71, and 45 %, respectively, while SIBO was detected in 26 (34.67 %). Prevalence of SIBO was 12.5 % in CTP class A, 41.94 % in CTP class B, and 50 % in CTP class C. Five (16.13 %) patients in no HE group had SIBO as compared to 14 (48.28 %) in MHE group and 7 (46.67 %) in early HE group (p = 0.018). OCTT was 111.13 ± 13.95 min in patients with no HE as compared to 137.59 ± 14.80 min in patients with MHE and 150 ± 15.12 min in patients with early HE (p < 0.001). OCTT was significantly prolonged in patients with SIBO (145 ± 17.49 min) than in those without SIBO (120.71 ± 18.3 min) (p < 0.001).

Conclusion

SIBO and delayed OCTT are more common with MHE and early HE in patients with cirrhosis.  相似文献

AIM:To evaluate the effects of estrogen(E2) on systemic and splanchnic hyperdynamic circulation in portal hypertensive rats.METHODS:Fifty castrated female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into five groups:sham operation(SO),partial portal vein ligation(PPVL) + placebo(PLAC),PPVL + E2,PPVL + ICI and PPVL + E2 + ICI. Hemodynamic measurements were performed using ultrasonography. Mesenteric arteriole contractility in response to norepinephrine was determined using a vessel perfusion system. Oxidative stress in the mesenteric artery was investigated by in situ detection of the superoxide anion(O2) and hydrogen peroxide(H2O2) concentrations.RESULTS:Treatment with E2 resulted in a significant decrease of portal pressure(P < 0.01) and portal venous inflow(P < 0.05),and higher systemic vascular resistance(P < 0.05) and splanchnic arteriolar resistance(P < 0.01) in PPVL + E2 rats compared to PPVL+ PLAC rats. In the mesenteric arterioles of PPVL +E2 rats,the dose-response curve was shifted left,and the EC50was decreased(P < 0.01). E2 reduced O2 production and H2O2concentration in the mesenteric artery. However,ICI182,780 reversed the beneficial effects of E2,therefore,the systemic and splanchnic hyperdynamic circulation were more deteriorated in ICI182,780-treated rats.CONCLUSION:Treatment with estrogen improved the systemic and splanchnic hyperdynamic circulation in PPVL rats,in part due to the alleviation of oxidative stress.  相似文献

Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), a common complication of cirrhosis of liver, might result from translocation of bacteria from the small bowel. However, there is scanty data on frequency of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) in patients with cirrhosis of the liver. There are no data on SIBO in patients with extra-hepatic portal venous obstruction (EHPVO) in the literature. A total of 174 patients with cirrhosis of the liver, 28 with EHPVO and 51 healthy controls were studied for SIBO using glucose hydrogen breath test (GHBT). Persistent rise in breath hydrogen 12 ppm above basal (at least two readings) was considered diagnostic of SIBO. Of 174 patients (age 47.2 ± 11.9 years, 80.5% male) with cirrhosis due to various causes, 67 (38.5%) were in Child’s class A, 70 (40.2%) class B and 37 (21.7%) class C. Of the 174 patients with cirrhosis, 42 (24.14%) had SIBO as compared to 1 of 51 (1.9%) healthy controls (P < 0.0001). Patients with EHPVO had similar frequency of SIBO compared to healthy controls [2/28 (7.14%) vs 1/51 (1.97%), P = ns]. Frequency of SIBO in Child’s A, B and C was comparable [13 (18.6%) vs 16 (23.9%) and 13 (35.1%), respectively; P = ns]. Presence of SIBO were not related to ascites, etiology of cirrhosis, and degree of liver dysfunction. SIBO is common in patients with cirrhosis of the liver. Patients with EHPVO do not have higher frequency of SIBO than healthy subjects. SIBO in cirrhosis is not related to the degree of derangement in liver function or of portal hypertension.  相似文献

Background: Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is a serious infection in cirrhotic patients with ascites. Both defects in the host defense mechanisms and the enhancement of the offensive factor (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO)) may contribute to the development of SBP. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the role of SIBO versus various antimicrobial capacities in the pathogenesis of SBP in cirrhotic patients. Methods: Forty-five cirrhotic patients were enrolled in this study. Bacterial overgrowth was evaluated by breath hydrogen test (BH2T). The hepatic reticuloendothelial system phagocytic index (HRESPI) was measured by intravenously injected colloid suspensions. Results:  相似文献
